Plastic deformation occurs when pressure is applied to a substance and this results in a change of shape of the solid. This occurs to rocks when they undergo metamorphism by pressure. A metamorphic rock is formed by the transformation of preexisting solid rocks under the influence of temperature and pressure. Extreme pressure in metamorphism causes some rocks to be foliated or have a banded appearance. Granite undergoes metamorphism to form gniess.
False
the location of a place in one of two ways: absolute and relative. Both are descriptives of where a geographic location is.
The lithosphere is the outermost mechanical layer, which behaves as a brittle, rigid solid. The lithosphere is about 100 kilometers thick. ... The definition of the lithosphere is based on how earth materials behave, so it includes the crust and the uppermost mantle, which are both brittle.
